Sorry I have been MIA, I’ve been busy HAVING A BABY!!!

{Insert -Yes!- Hooray!- Finally!- What took you so long?!?!- here!}

Our son made his grand debut after 14 hours of natural {yes that means no med’s} labor on Thursday, November 18th at 6:32 am.

“van”, as we are affectionately calling him, popped out weighing in at 9lbs 2 ozs and 21.5″ long!  He also decided that besides bugging mom and dad by being late, he was going to turn Posterior in utero.  {for those not knowing what that means, most babies come out face down- nose facing mom’s spine.   But van popped out face up, with the back of his head facing my spine.  Causing a  MUCH harder/intense labor and birth!}  It was definitely the hardest thing I have EVER done in my life, but the feeling I get when I look at him is AMAZING!

We only had to stay at the hospital for 36 hours, but had several visitors while we were there!

Now we are busy getting settled in at home with the help of family…

Thanks to everyone for the emails, texts, and phone calls!  As we come out of this fog, otherwise known as sleep deprivation, we promise to get it touch!  Stay Tuned for more photos!!
